The results show that four mosquito species were found in different numbers: Culex fuscochepala (97 individuals, 38.8%), Culex perexiguus (62 individuals, 24.8%), Culex vishnui (8 individuals, 3.2%), and Aedes aegypti (3 individuals, 1.2%). In conclusion, the Culex genus is the most dominant in the study area, while the Aedes genus was found in much smaller numbers. Keywords: identification, morphology, mosquito, Culex, Aedes.
